cups 1.3.7 prints blank page at the end of every print job

[joe]

After switching from RH9 w/ cups 1.1.17 to Fedora 8 w/ cups 1.3.7, an extra blank page is printed at the end of every print job.

The documents are pure text, with one "\n" at the end of each line, and one "\f" at the end of each page. I've done a hexdump to verify there are no extra control characters at the end of the document before it goes to the spooler.

The printer is configured as follows:

<DefaultPrinter X>
Info Samsung ML-2571 Laser Printer
Location Bob's Office
DeviceURI socket://bobs_printer:9100
State Idle
StateTime 1224208088
Accepting Yes
Shared Yes
JobSheets none none
QuotaPeriod 0
PageLimit 0
KLimit 0
OpPolicy default
ErrorPolicy abort-job
</Printer>

I found a post that said to disable page accounting as a work around, but that didn't seem to work. There was also mention of a DefaultSendFF which sounded promising. I added *DefaultSendFF: False to my ppd file, but I still get the blank after restarting cups.

The system with the blank page problem is running:
# cat /etc/redhat-release
Fedora release 8 (Werewolf)

and the cups software packages are:

# rpm -qa|grep cups
cups-1.3.7-4.fc8
hal-cups-utils-0.6.13-2.fc8
cupsddk-drivers-1.2.3-3.fc8
cups-libs-1.3.7-4.fc8
libgnomecups-0.2.2-11.fc8
bluez-utils-cups-3.20-7.fc8


The system that doesn't have a blank page at the end of every print job is running:
#cat /etc/redhat-release
Red Hat Linux release 9 (Shrike)

and the cups packages are:

#rpm -qa|grep cups
cups-1.1.17-13
qtcups-2.0-15
cups-libs-1.1.17-13

If this post appears twice please accept my apology and delete the duplicate.  I thought I posted this issue earlier this afternoon, but I can't find it using the search.  I didn't receive any notification the earlier attempt was posted so I must have fat fingered something.
